2 years ago, the biggest songs off Merry Christmas II You (2010) was deleted and replaced by AIWFCIY Original. She had a re-recorded version of the song on the album previously. It had 40 million streams at the time and was adding 20 million per season. 

 

Now, the biggest song on MCIIY is Oh Santa Original at 41 million streams. 

 

However, her Oh Santa Remix is sitting at 93 million. It pushed 30 million streams in 2023 and will join the 100m club next year, as well as 2 other songs from the Original Xmas album.

If only we could've made When Christmas Comes OG a smash, then she could have had 1 in three decades 😪
